Nature and surroundings
Go out, discover the outdoors. A deer, a buzzard and a sky full of swallows. This year we also saw badgers, a grass snake viper, a forest martin and many species of birds and butterflies. Bring long pants and boots, the estate is nature reserve with not paths everywhere. .... Even though you are in the middle of the peace, the bakery and supermarket are nearby, about 3 kilometers. Because the estate is nature reserve it is different every time. In May/June the grass is high and in August it is yellow and dry. Every year the grass is cut. In the short grass you can see deer walking and step to the small lake and river Vire. In summer there are blackberries everywhere. Delicious to make jam with. Get oysters at the market, delicious. FROM MID-JULY TO MID-AUGUST WE ORGANIZE FREE TOURS IN SEARCH OF BADGERS AND BATS . The area is great for hiking and cycling. The D day beaches are 1 hour away. The beaches of Granville are also 1 hour away.

Beautiful quiet area with daily deer and many birds. When we arrived in the evening it was quite chilly and a bit damp in the cottage. Tried to get the fireplace lit but it kept going out (not really good for the mood). Next day we found out that the ashtray was overflowing so there was no draft. By the way, a basket to put the wood would not be superfluous. As the house was not very atmospheric and we were lucky with the weather, we were happy to be away all day as many places of interest are on average an hour's drive away. The village is definitely worth a visit.
Mooie rustige omgeving met dagelijks reeën en veel vogels. Zelfs nog een Koolmeesje gered die tegen het raam van de serre aanvloog.
Toen we 's avonds aankwamen was het best fris en wat vochtig in het huisje. Geprobeerd de openhaard aan te krijgen maar ging steeds weer uit (niet echt goed voor de gemoedstoestand). Volgende dag kwamen we erachter dat de aslade overvol was waardoor er geen trek was. Daarna heerlijk ervan genoten.
Mandje om het hout in te doen zou trouwens niet overbodig zijn. Nu leg je de houtblokken op de vloer wat op een gegeven moment best een troep geeft.
Gezien het huisje verder niet echt sfeervol was en we mazzel hadden met het weer, waren we blij dat we de hele dag weg waren gezien veel bezienswaardigheden gemiddeld een uur rijden is. Dus perfect.
Het dorpje is zeker de moeite waard om even te bezoeken.Cottage is not very atmospheric. If you sit in the cottage you see unfortunately little of the surroundings given the windows are not abundant. In the evening you miss a cozy lamp at the dining table instead of the big light. The shower is top and the beds are unfortunately for my back a little less. Was slightly lying through.The kitchen inventory not really thriving.Bread knife was worn and cuts like a blunt meat knife. Bread board not present, only a glass board where your bread slides in all directions.Dirty glasses and wine glasses. Frying pan still had grease in it and was burned through by the cooktop. Other frying pan the non-stick coating was hanging there flaking so you could not use it. If you arrive in the dark, the site is also dark. Flashlight is not a luxury given the route to the woodshed is not lit.
Huisje is niet echt sfeervol. Als je in het huisje zit zie je helaas weinig van de omgeving gezien de ramen niet overvloedig zijn. Eettafel is dan de beste plek.
's Avonds mis je wel een gezellig lampje bij de eettafel ipv het grote licht.
De douche is top en de bedden zijn helaas voor mijn rug wat minder. Lag iets door.
De keukeninventaris niet echt denderend.
Broodmes was versleten en snijdt als een botte vleesmes. Broodplank niet aanwezig, alleen een glazen plank waarbij je brood alle kanten op glijdt.
Vieze glazen en wijnglazen. Koekenpan zat nog vet in en was doorgebrand door de kookplaat. Andere koekenpan hing de anti aanbaklaag er bladderend bij die je dus niet kon gebruiken. Als je in het donker aankomt is het terrein ook donker. Zaklamp is geen overbodige luxe gezien de route naar de houtschuur niet is verlicht.This text is automatically translated.
